All the things bestselling author Annie Grace wishes she’d known before her first drink
Let’s be honest. Parents probably know more about how bad soda can be for their kids, or the side effects of antibiotics, than they do about how alcohol affects them. Here’s a chance for kids to learn more than their parents! Armed with evidence, kids get to decide how they feel—and the choices they want to make. There are no rules, just facts (not boring!) and brain science: all the things Annie Grace wishes she’d known before her first drink.
With whimsical storytelling and illustrations, Buzz to Buzzkill: How Alcohol and Dopamine Hack Your Brain explains basic facts so that kids can understand what happens to their brain when they drink. Like The Care and Keeping of You or The No More Bullying Book for Kids, Buzz to Buzzkill empowers kids to learn about this sensitive topic on their own terms.
